Why can’t you judge him on elusiveness, broken tackles, yards after contact, yards after reception, short yardage situations (biggest misconception about him), forced missed tackles...ya know, pretty much every other stat not total yards or most carries?
That's fine you feel that way. But when Zeke has been on the field we have at least fought for the NFC East. They surely didn't do it in 2015 and surely couldn't do it in 2018....
I'm fine with doing that. But where are those stats? Only thing you keep bringing up is YPC. Everything can't be shown in stats. How are you judging his elusiveness in comparison to everyone else? How are you judging his ability to break tackles? Because he doesn't have as many as Barkley? He also doesn't have to have as many as Barkley. Zeke played in a stacked offense last year. Barkley' stats would take a hit if he played in this offense.
I don't think Zeke belongs with McCaff, Chubb, Barkley, Kamara, and Henry, but you will see nearly every person have a different personal ranking.
Since when did total yards which is almost always equivalent to total carries dictate how good a RB is? I agree ypc can be deceiving when talking about a guy who gets 50-100 carries per season vs someone with 300 but when you’re comparing RB’s within a relatively close amount of carries I think it’s relevant, especially taking into consideration what they’re running behind.
Well tell me this...you ever seen a bum have the most total yards in the league? Because I haven't. I've seen some bums put up a high YPC though. BTW, I never said total yards was the only way to gauge a player. I just said I can't ignore it either.
He stars on a terrible team with no QB and a garbage OL. Zeke has everything and struggles finishing games.
And this is my argument for Zeke....Zeke has been in the league since 2016. Yet he's still tops in rushing. He's shown at least through 4 years he can maintain his level of play. None of the other guys have even been in the league long enough to say that.
Legit argument.
They create much more for themselves than Zeke does for himself, Zeke relies on volume and surrounding talent more than the others that I listed.
Oh I agree....I'm more disturbed by the he's not even top 10 crowd.
Oh you disappoint me friend, I’ve posted these stats over and over but no one wants to click on the links or admit it. Granted, some are a year old because I wasn’t able to find new ones but I wouldn’t want to include zeke’s 2019 if I were one of his supporters.
I'm on the Zeke side of this argument but you gotta watch Khiladi man.......first thing I noticed was it said 2018 lol. And that's from October 2018 at that lol.
Again, speaking of zeke as a player, have I ever called him a bum? I’m also waiting for your quote of me saying zeke and henry would suck behind other O lines.
